The Price is Right: Episode 2

about 7 years

Liked the first one? It’s back for another go-round!

Steph was the big winner last time, winning over $22,000 in prizes. You could be like her and win a crapload of fake prizes… but only if the Price is Right!

Format

Bidding is retooled it a bit to make it a bit more fair. No more sign-ups—bidding is open to anybody.

You'll get 48 hours to bid on a prize. Instead of getting one bid only, you can make as many bids as you want. Just three rules:

  1. Just like an auction, you can raise your bid, but you can't lower it.
  2. Each time you raise, you must bid at least $20 more than your previous bid.
  3. When the bids freeze, only your highest bid will be considered.

After the bids are frozen, the player closest to the actual retail price without going over wins the prize and gets to play a pricing game to try to win something even better.

Four pricing games are played. The two biggest winners after four pricing games get to play the showcases. Same as it worked last time.

Rules:

  • If it’s your turn to play a pricing game and you don’t respond within 24 hours, you’ll get a prod; don’t respond within 48 hours and it’s an auto lose. So don’t do that.
  • PM me if you're going to be in the middle of a hurricane or something and can't check the thread. I'll see if I can help you out, although I will try to keep the game moving as best it can.
  • Prices are in US dollars. Our friends outside the US may use a currency converter to help them out if they need them. (No googling the prices of prizes—that would be unfair.)
  • Audience participation is STRONGLY ENCOURAGED! Feel free to shout out suggestions in the thread.

What's the next prize up for bids?

It’s a lovely pool table!



From MD Sports, this billiard pool table features parlor-style leather pockets and wood-grained top rails, and is the perfect dust magnet for taking up 40 square feet of space in your home!

And that pool table will go to the one who bids closest without going over. LekkuLover, you're free to bid on this as well. There is no limit to the amount of prizes you can win.

Bidding will go until 8 PM EST on Friday, September 1. Good luck!

LekkuLover says the frige is $3,499.



If he's right, that means he wins both prizes! What would you do with a chair and a wifi-connected TV fridge? Aw, I'm sure you'll find something to do with it. Is LekkuLover a winner?



Of course he is! That is your chair and fridge! Truthfully, I don't know if that could have been any easier. Congratulations!

LekkuLover! Congratulations! You've won those guitars, but that's only the BEGINNING! We also want you to win these!



A smart refrigerator and a soothing massage chair!

First, from Samsung, this refrigerator features an ice maker and dual cooling, plus a built-in touch screen! This smart screen lets see inside the fridge from three built-in cameras, stream Pandora, Spotify, and TV, or order food online directly to your house! It’s the command center of your kitchen!

And, this caramel-colored massage chair is fully reclinable and has three different settings so better call your boss and let him know that you’re not coming in to work today.

LekkuLover, you're going to play One Right Price.



As you can see by this tag, the one right price today is $3,499. One of those prizes is $3,499. Tell us which one it is and you win both prizes!
